The 13-14 girls of the Elmbrook Swim Club in suburban Milwaukee have taken half-a-second off the National Age Group Record in the 13-14 girls’ 200 meter medley relay. The team of Margaret Wanezek (29.45), Lucy Thomas (32.05), Campbell Stoll (28.60), and Reese Tiltmann (27.37) combined for a 1:57.47. That broke the old record of 1:58.07 that was set in 2016 by a quartet from NCAP that included Phoebe Bacon, who is currently a US National Team member.
Comparative Splits:
NCAP | Elmsbrook Swim Club | |
Old Record | New Record | |
Fly | Phoebe Bacon – 29.32 | Margaret Wanezek – 29.45 |
Back | Abigail Harter – 33.16 | Lucy Thomas – 32.05 |
Breast | Jillian Johnson – 28.98 | Campbell Stoll – 28.60 |
Free | Maya Fischer – 26.61 | Reese Tiltmann – 27.37 |
Total | 1:58.07 | 1:57.47 |
That Wanezek was able to stay close to Bacon’s split, when Bacon is primarily a backstroker, is maybe the most impressive split of the Elmsbrook relay. Lucy Thomas‘ 32.05 breaststroke split was the difference-maker, though, as that gave the Elmsbrook relay the hypothetical lead ahead of the ‘record line’ that Campbell Stoll grew and Reese Tiltmann held on to for the record.
Congratulations!!!
